    Hi TB!
    Thank you so much for the review! We loved it :D
    Also, thank you for bringing the case-back to our attention. The image displayed on the website was the old caseback (from when it was released), but since then we have now replaced the case back with our updated one, which is the one you have. This has now been flagged to our e-commerce team and will be resolved ASAP.
    Once again, thank you for the review and we hope you enjoy the watch :)!
    Best,
    Team Rotary

      I've had several of your 50s/60s/70s watches in both stainless steel and 9ct gold over the past couple of years, most with A. Schild movements, and all still going strong! Very nice to work on, too. :)

    Just bought a Moon-phase Rotary Windsor...Chinese so what, the dial is absolutely beautiful...my classic Casio F91W was made there too...and not in Japan...but for £150 ..new off an E Bay dealer with a 3 year guarantee it is amazing value in my opinion...

      Ah, it's got to be Jeremy Brett for me.
      I really like the dimensions of this watch but having held one in store I was a little underwhelmed by the feel. I was expecting it to be heavier. That said the dial looks very nice for the price point. Better than some of the more expensive Swiss counterparts (Frederique Constant and Tudor to name a few).
      Be well everyone

    [late at the party, forgot to comment when the vid came out... sorry Duncan]
    Rotary, like Accurist too, a Brit brand that not many will recognise outside the "island". But both are trying to survive, in a weird way lately (ok, many years 😋), with a little help from - who other that - PRC. Nothing new here. Not sure how all this will turn out, so far though, not the best of results...
    As for this one, Breguet alike watch, i'll just say that i'm not a fan, especially with the Roman numerals (only the Cartier Tank can pull it out IMO...), but can definitely can see appeal it may have to you, and others of course.
    Thanks mate, hope all is well in your part of the world (and the family!), cheers.

    Hello there!! Great review of a great watch!!!!
    I've been contemplating on buying this watch for sometime. The design language always lures me in. But the one thing that steers me away from this piece is the movement. My dad has had one rotary watch gifted to him by his company. It stopped working a couple of years later and any battery change didn't help either!!
    My main concern for this timepiece is the movement. Whether or not it is a reliable movement and can it be replaced if it stops working?? Or is it one of those designer watch quartz calibres??

    • @thetimebombardier
      @thetimebombardier  Год назад +1

      Hey Aash thanks bud and welcome to the channel 👍😎 a straight forward battery swap shouldn't affect the movement and they do come with a guarantee, can't recall if it's kne or two years ☺️☺️

    Hey bro so it seems the back of your watch is a different to ones I’ve seen in other videos. Yours says “celebrating X years of watchmaking” and “made in PRC” whereas the other videos I’ve watched are exactly the same as the marketing photos
